He died of Cancer last summer after a long career of speaking to any kid who would listen...about what you can achieve in life if you set your mind to it. http://www.paddleboards.com/Photos/Larry%20Capune%20fame/ I saw this guy twice in Jr High (early '70s) and he was really a great fellow. He would spin yarns about long distance paddling down the Atlantic Coast and really liked telling stories about what freeks the Kennedy's were when they had met. Does anyone else remember him speaking at their school/church/cell block? [ Edited by: gigantalope on 2005-03-20 23:24 ]
